Summary
24 Sussex is a stupid media distraction. Prime Minister Mark Carney wants to renovate the Prime Minister's residence, and the media are covering it as a fight between the Tories and the Liberals. It's a distraction that deflects attention away from the real issues the country is going through right now.

Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here, and welcome back to the National Telegraph YouTube channel.
00:00:06.380
Have you ever seen a more obvious political operation than what is happening right now
00:00:12.080
with 24 Sussex? Prime Minister Mark Carney and the federal liberals are in big trouble
00:00:18.740
on multiple fronts. Food inflation sucks, the economy sucks, the developer bailout sucks,
0.99
00:00:25.200
and the alto high-speed rail project sucks and so what do the liberals want to talk about right now
1.00
00:00:31.360
well repairs to the prime minister's residence that's a stupid issue that they can deflect on
0.98
00:00:37.700
and of course the media is going along with it i want to start this video off with a segment from
0.91
00:00:44.960
the cbc to just show how obvious this whole thing is they are trying to manufacture a fight between
00:00:51.220
the conservatives and the liberals on something they're not actually fighting about because we
00:00:56.820
don't want to talk about the real issues the country is going through right now or the very
00:01:01.720
scandalous things that the liberals have been recently doing with the alto high-speed rail
00:01:06.060
project the nova scotia space launch pad and the vancouver developer bailout check out this segment
00:01:13.280
from the cvc with our favorite host david cochran prime minister mark carney lays out his reasoning
00:01:22.460
It is, of course, the Prime Minister's official residence,
00:01:24.740
but no Canadian leader has lived there since 2015.
00:01:28.860
Well, 24 Sussex is a symbol of the office it serves.
00:01:34.960
And the women and men who will lead our country in the future
00:01:41.320
I may not look like it, but my kids are already grown.
00:01:44.200
And I will never, in any event, live in 24 Sussex Drive.
00:01:50.000
In the end, I and all public officials are stewards of the offices we hold.
00:01:59.820
And we have a responsibility to leave things better than we found them.
00:02:04.020
Conservative leader Pierre Pallievos asked about this renovation idea yesterday
00:02:07.780
and what he thinks should happen to this heritage building.
00:02:11.480
You know, I just think when I go around this country
00:02:13.900
and I meet so many people who can't afford a place to live,
00:02:19.440
and I see the young people who are desperate to start families but can't get a house to do it,
00:02:24.740
I just think the last thing on our minds should be 24 Sussex Drive.
00:02:29.340
By the way, that is not what Pierre Pauly have said.
00:02:32.900
They cut him out of context to make it sound like he went after Prime Minister Carney
00:02:42.600
That's literally what he actually said at the beginning of the answer
00:02:46.080
that the CBC cut out of context. Because when you actually hear the question and then hear what
00:02:52.420
Pierre Pauly have said, it's very clear. He just said, I don't care about talking about 24 Sussex
00:02:57.180
right now. Let's talk about the real issues, not about what's going to happen with the prime
00:03:01.060
minister's residence. I myself think we, I don't care if Carney invests $70 million building
00:03:07.920
himself a cotton candy castle that he will live out of within the next year. I don't care if he
00:03:13.820
lives in it. I don't care how much he spends on it as long as we're not spending like a billion
00:03:17.660
dollars. Do whatever you want, man. And we go back to talking about the economy, talking about the
00:03:23.260
major projects, trying to get a pipeline built, reducing immigration further, trying to cut down
00:03:28.840
on taxes. How do we talk about that? But instead, we are talking about 24 Sussex because the prime
00:03:34.920
minister had a very staged press conference about it. And you could say all press conferences are
00:03:39.860
stage. I mean, this is something that should have been a press release. It should have just been
00:03:44.180
words on paper saying what he's planning on doing. And apparently we're going to do
00:03:48.500
some crowdfunding of 24 Sussex. And we're going to also solicit the public for ideas on ways
00:03:54.940
that it could be improved or rebuilt or renovated or whatever. It's obviously just a stupid media
1.00
00:04:01.540
distraction as if we're actually going to take some random person from the public's idea of what
0.98
00:04:07.360
24 Sussex should look like. And by the way, it actually is a good point that people made later.
00:04:11.840
Like, isn't that kind of like a major vector of corruption to have people donating to the
00:04:16.380
prime minister's residence, even if Carney's saying he's never going to live in it? But whatever.
00:04:21.060
I want to now get to the original clip of what Pierre Polyev actually said. But of course,
00:04:27.180
we will be having to go back to the media a few times here because they keep trying to manufacture
00:04:35.160
a fight between Carney and Polyev that is not happening on this issue is what do you think
00:04:41.100
should happen to 24 Sussex I really don't think about it at all that is basically the real answer
00:04:48.260
he goes on to only say we shouldn't be really talking about this right now because we have
00:04:52.860
more serious issues he's not saying don't fix up 24 Sussex he's saying that why are we putting so
00:04:58.140
much thought and energy in the public eye into what we're going to do with it just give this to
00:05:03.720
some random person in the prime minister's office to deal with figure it out man who cares here's a
00:05:09.080
here's a 70 million dollar budget figure out the renovations maybe rebuild the whole thing who
00:05:13.480
knows maybe build it up burn it down then build it up again let's talk about what normal people
00:05:18.120
are going through but i'm going to go back a bit and let the whole answer play out in its full
00:05:23.160
context now into 24 sussex i really don't think about it at all you know i just think when i go
00:05:30.760
around this country and i meet so many people who can't afford a place to live when i see the
00:05:35.800
homelessness on our streets and i see the young people who are desperate to start families but
0.96
00:05:39.960
can't get a house to do it i just think the last thing on our mind should be 24 sussex drive
0.98
00:05:49.160
see it has nothing to do with whether we should invest in fixing up or not if you actually sat
00:05:54.600
down and probably gave an in-depth answer on this you'd probably say yeah it's probably worth
00:05:58.680
fixing it up it is in disrepair apparently there's issues with rats and and moldy and
00:06:04.440
bold and whatnot and asbestos was in it or whatever sure it should be fixed up but the
00:06:10.200
fact the media is bringing it up at his press conference shows they just don't want to talk
00:06:15.240
about the actual rampant corruption and conflicts of interest and waste of money and crappy economy
00:06:21.320
that's in a recession right now that mark carney is overseeing they would rather talk about is is
00:06:27.480
pure poly of patriotic enough to support the repairs to 24 sussex i guess you got him guys i
00:06:36.780
guess he can't be prime minister anymore because he he didn't give like an emphatic oh i hope mark
00:06:41.900
carney makes the most beautiful building in the country type answer when asked here's sharon core
00:06:47.700
a uh liberal commentator who often appears on ctv news and cbc i think she's exclusively on one or
00:06:54.720
the other. I really don't care. But she says here, tagging him because it's so important.
00:07:00.100
Here, Polyevs lives in Stornoway, an official residence paid for by taxpayers, while attacking
00:07:05.660
the idea of 24 Sussex. If he truly believes these residences are inappropriate, there's an easy
00:07:11.440
solution. Move out. Until then, this is just performative hypocrisy. Performative. He didn't
00:07:17.360
want to answer the question because he doesn't care. He literally just says, I don't think about
00:07:21.440
it i don't think he didn't say burn the house down oh there should be burned down and cardi
0.96
00:07:27.600
should be inside of it while it's being like hit with a napalm bomb like that never happened he is
0.59
00:07:33.120
literally car polyev is doing the right thing but the media is trying to force into a fight anyway
00:07:38.180
so he has not made a mistake here but polyev when they start when the media starts trying to go to
0.97
00:07:42.160
a stupid topic it's like going limp it's like not letting them go on to the stupid topic and every
0.99
00:07:47.080
time they like try and push him he just kind of goes limp just kind of slouches over and does not
1.00
00:07:52.420
allow them to get him into this stupid topic this thing will burn itself out but this is such an
0.98
00:07:58.020
instructive example of what the liberals and what the liberal media does every time things get
0.99
00:08:03.620
serious oh let's let's uh talk about uh let's talk about uh 24 sussex let's talk about uh
00:08:08.960
let's talk about pride let's talk about uh fifa let's talk about fifa uh yeah yeah we have a 90
00:08:14.000
billion train nobody wants that has massive conflicts of interest with our finance minister
00:08:18.720
as well as probably other connected liberal contractors who donate a lot oh yes there is
00:08:24.580
the developer bailout but uh what do you think about 24 sussex do you think you should have a
00:08:30.160
pool in the back how big should the bathtub be in the guest house how big it's like stop it guys
00:08:35.980
i don't care uh here's another one this james christian parsons says and there we have it folks
0.97
00:08:43.580
the pathetic whole whole pusillanimous like oh my goodness you take the dictionary out of your hand
1.00
00:08:50.580
right now sir this pathetic pusillanimous attitude that has reduced 24 sex uh sussex to a vermin
1.00
00:08:58.240
infested ruin over several decades shameful oh yes here polyev has been the one blocking 24 sussex
0.99
00:09:06.180
from being fixed. His pusillanimous attitude is what is causing this mess right now.
0.68
00:09:14.980
If you actually think about it, Polyev not caring enough about 24 Sussex, that's actually what
00:09:24.240
spawned rats. Rats are only walking this earth because pure Polyev does not care about 24 Sussex
00:09:30.980
enough it's so dumb it's so dumb and i know back when trudeau first got brought in there was this
0.99
00:09:39.400
like very small media controversy he's like oh it's 24 sussex not good enough for him because
0.99
00:09:44.180
he didn't want to move into it because there's repair issues that was stupid it also lasted five
0.79
00:09:48.720
seconds but the media is trying to pretend that's currently going on right now with pure polyev
00:09:52.840
when i'm pretty sure people from both parties since 2015 have all vocalized yeah they should
00:09:57.720
probably repair it and now carney's only doing it this moment because he wants to like i guess like
00:10:04.100
he wants i guess he wants to get the attention off him and again i have to go back to this guy
00:10:08.940
using the word pusillanimous like he's a character from lost in space here scott reed says chronically
00:10:16.820
unable to reach past the pinched partisan take if peer poly of feels renovating of 24 sussex
00:10:24.260
Let him haul his butt out of Stornoway tomorrow.
0.98
00:10:37.260
that Pearson did because they didn't even pick the flag
00:10:40.000
that was actually the most popular flag among them.
00:10:45.440
but there was that tricolor white, red, and blue flag
00:10:52.680
with the two blue bars on the sides and the triple maple leaf in the middle.
00:10:57.980
That was the one who actually won all the popularity polls, and then they just ditched it.
00:11:01.920
Again, I really doubt Bernie's actually going to let members of the public have
00:11:06.280
a heavy impact on the renovations that are going to take place.
00:11:10.660
Even people who consider themselves conservatives here, like Blaine Baddock,
00:11:18.640
Blaine says, a conservative vision for our future that does not build on our legacy,
00:11:23.200
respect our traditions, and honor what's beautiful and right is not a conservative vision.
00:11:31.120
We owe it to future Canadians to restore this historical site.
00:11:35.480
By the way, I think we should probably fix it up too, rebuild it, do whatever you want with it.
0.79
00:11:39.460
The idea it's an international embarrassment is kind of silly.
00:11:43.760
I don't think anyone outside of Canada even really knows about it.
00:11:47.840
And frankly, probably less than 10% of Canadians are really aware of what's going on with 24 Sussex day to day.
00:11:58.820
It's so lame that we're talking about this and we all know why we're talking about it.
00:12:03.300
But we're going to continue talking about it as if we all don't know it's a distraction.
00:12:15.840
except in this case they're trying to distract us we know they're trying to distract us they know
00:12:20.060
that we know that they're trying to distract us and yet they are still trying to distract us with
00:12:23.800
this lame thing news you're going to be crowdfunding to restore one of the most famous
00:12:28.320
addresses in the country what conversations did you have about what could go wrong i'm thinking
00:12:33.440
possible foreign influence perceptions that wealthy donors could be occurring favors to the government
00:12:38.520
and how specifically do you plan to address that will you make the list of donors public will you
00:12:43.020
put limits yeah great thank you for the question um uh first uh let me go through a few uh the list
00:12:49.880
of donors will be public uh there will be a limit uh the limit will be well the real hall foundation
00:12:56.760
will make the final we'll make this public but uh the thinking is the limit would be 10 percent of
00:13:01.100
the overall amount raised or a specific cap uh individuals and philanthropic organizations no
00:13:07.960
corporate donations. As I said earlier, in French, the way the process is designed is
00:13:15.600
we have the Rideau Hall Foundation overseeing the fundraising, no influence at all on the decisions,
00:13:25.760
decisions made by the experts in terms of what is the right design that balances all those various
00:13:31.940
uh factors um and uh and obviously ultimately and and a transparency did i mention publication of
00:13:38.400
all the donors etc he didn't mention that already before it still is a massive vector of corruption
00:13:45.700
just because the names are public doesn't mean that it's still not kind of shady that someone
00:13:51.380
could potentially give you what is 10 of the value of the construction which in theory could be like
00:13:57.500
a million dollars or more considering how much oftentimes it would cost to build something like
00:14:03.480
this with all the extra security features that are needed and you know just the fact that you're
00:14:09.260
going to try and like build it in the most grand style possible which absolutely they should do
00:14:15.580
it's the prime minister's residence fair enough but like this is going to be a problem we already
00:14:20.760
have problems with developers in vancouver holding fundraising events with the prime minister for his
00:14:26.380
party and you can say, well, they can only donate up to $1,750. Yeah, but those developers and their
00:14:32.720
family members and their contractors can all show up and all give you a massive donation. You can
00:14:38.320
raise hundreds of thousands of dollars in a single night just because the dollar value is low doesn't
00:14:42.820
mean that the value of those dollars when it comes to political campaigning are not very, very high.
00:14:47.960
That's the funny thing is that money in politics or taking money out of politics or reducing the
00:14:53.260
amount really doesn't do anything because everything's relative. $1,000 is worth like
00:14:59.740
in Canadian political donations what like $5,000 or $10,000 would be in the United States. Just
00:15:06.480
because you remove the cap, it just means that the dollar values are just kind of relative to
00:15:12.160
how much everyone else is currently spending. But yeah, that probably is one real problem with this
00:15:18.280
potential project. But now I need to move on to another CBC segment where they were also talking
00:15:25.340
about it. I believe this is Rob Breckenridge on CBC as a guest, talking about how somehow
00:15:31.800
Polyev is lacking in patriotism or too partisan or blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Really, we want
1.00
00:15:38.040
to just jaw jack and wave our gums about something that is something that Carney is currently messing
00:15:43.280
up which means like this is the only thing we can talk about because this is like the only thing
00:15:48.000
that is currently not going badly minus half of the immigration issue i would that's the one thing
00:15:54.340
i give the liberals credit for half of the immigration issue has been solved there's still
00:15:58.580
another half where prs are still too high certain other elements of immigration are too high we're
00:16:03.700
not deporting people over staying visas uh i that's just my one thing to demonstrate i'm not
00:16:08.980
like a partisan hack. I actually can give the liberals credit on certain things, but for the
00:16:13.660
most part, really not that much good to talk about. And plus, the liberal base is really not
00:16:18.160
the type of people who actually celebrate reducing immigration. So right now, in a lot of ways,
00:16:23.160
the liberals have no achievements. Not surprisingly, of course, the leader of the opposition has come
00:16:28.680
out being critical of this decision, saying that this is the last thing on Canadians' minds. There's
00:16:33.840
been concerns around affordability. What do you make of that argument? Well, it's interesting
00:16:39.520
the contrast between what Pierre Paliyev said and actually what Stephen Harper said, a statement
00:16:44.220
from Stephen Harper applauding the Prime Minister for finally taking action on this. So, you know,
00:16:50.320
for Pierre Paliyev and I guess also Andrew Scheer previously, who both lived at Stornoway, it's
00:16:55.220
kind of curious to see them, you know, hammering the Prime Minister over wanting... Hammering him
00:16:59.960
how? Hammering them how? Actually, Rob hosts a political show every day. Can Rob and these
00:17:07.520
other two bald men, I'm not sure if they all said the same stupid thing. I'm going to guess they
1.00
00:17:11.940
did. It is the CBC. Can they cite me a quote where Pauliev or Scheer or anyone else hammered
00:17:19.480
the prime minister over this? I know they're all subsidized media hacks and they're basically paid
00:17:25.220
to lie here, but can we at least lie a bit better? Can we at least misquote him a bit? There's not
00:17:31.960
even the attempt to manufacture a quote from Pierre Polyev. They're just simply telling the
00:17:36.200
audience, wow, if you really think about it, Pierre Polyev hates the country because he doesn't want
00:17:42.580
to talk about 24 Sussex instead of all the things that are wrong that he's supposed to be opposing
00:17:47.080
as opposition leader. What a concept. Opposition leader doesn't want to talk about stupid fluff
00:17:52.340
issues. He wants to talk about things he has a problem with. To fix this prime minister's
1.00
00:17:57.020
residence. And, you know, for the conservatives who have sort of taken up this mantle of this
00:18:01.140
cause of preserving Canadian history and why are we toppling or taking down these statues and
00:18:05.980
all of this history matters. I mean, this seemed like a real opportunity for them
00:18:09.940
to sort of lead the charge on that. How do you lead the charge on 24 Sussex as the opposition?
00:18:16.080
he's gonna do the job good and he's like saying well you know if they if they're the ones arguing
00:18:23.020
against taking down uh statues of of ryerson and johnny mcdonald and not renaming things well
00:18:30.120
shouldn't they be plotting the prime minister if you're convinced by this you're just hand back in
00:18:36.660
your high school diploma and we're going to ritualistically burn it in front of you because
00:18:40.980
you have failed at just basic logic and thought to actually think that this is something that
00:18:46.820
the conservatives are hammering on do you it would be it would be political malpractice
00:18:52.020
for the conservatives to oppose this they're not opposing it because not only are they not
0.98
00:18:55.940
politically stupid but they also just don't care that's the thing we are manufacturing a non-quote
0.95
00:19:04.500
from poly of other media people are rob breckenridge isn't even like he's too lazy to even
1.00
00:19:11.800
She's just simply asserting that he's opposed it.
00:19:17.920
saying, I just don't want to talk about this right now.
0.98
00:19:21.320
Apparently, this means we must now burn him like a witch.
0.98
00:19:32.660
And unfortunately, it is going to cost a lot to fix this.
00:19:36.900
is this a big topic on Rob Breckenridge's show that nobody listens to? Is this a big thing that
00:19:44.120
he does? I guarantee you he does not bring up 24 Sussex ever. Probably the last time he brought it
00:19:51.340
up was when it was briefly a controversy back in like 2016, 2015, 2016. Since then, I guarantee
00:19:57.860
he has only brought it up maybe one time in passing, but he's pretending like, oh my goodness,
00:20:02.380
Why are the conservatives not joining together in honoring 24 Sussex?
00:20:18.280
He's only critiquing the media, bringing up a topic that distracts from real issues.
00:20:26.060
You know, people are struggling to buy food, to pay for their rent, their mortgage, to put their kids through school.
00:20:33.440
They can't even put their kids in hockey anymore because it's too expensive.
00:20:36.980
And we're going to waste time talking about 24 Sussex.
00:20:43.000
The prime minister can release a press release about it.
00:20:46.500
Just say, I'm going to be putting together this amount of money and I'm going to fix that.
00:20:51.040
I think everyone will be like, OK, sure, good, whatever.
00:20:52.920
$50 million, $100 million. I don't care how much it costs. Whatever. Do it. Because it's going to
00:20:57.800
have a helipad, too. We're going to make it out of candy. Fair enough. Now, can we get back to
00:21:04.640
real issues? But this is a great example of the liberal media being effectively just a branch of
00:21:13.440
the liberal party, which is why I call them the liberal media. The media should be... If this
00:21:19.420
takes a segment. It should have been a news report segment where it's not having panels of people on
00:21:26.480
to talk about it. Maybe have one person come on, an architecture expert, come on and talk about
00:21:31.740
what he thinks should happen with it. How long has it been in disrepair? This requires maybe a
00:21:36.940
five-minute segment where they just talk about some of the issues around it, what the prime
00:21:40.240
minister is doing, and then moving on. We've turned it into multiple panel shows on just one
00:21:45.680
of the outlets already. The other outlets have probably done it too, trying to make this a
00:21:50.580
controversy because this being a dumb controversy gets people distracted away from the real
0.96
00:21:57.880
controversies. But what do I know? I'm not a professional journalist. Anyways, with all that
0.95
00:22:05.840
being said, thank you guys for watching. Make sure to leave a like on this video if you like what I
00:22:10.800
do. Subscribe if you are not yet a subscriber. Leave a comment with what you think about this
00:22:16.540
stupid issue and what the media is doing. And of course, if you want to support the channel even
0.99
00:22:21.120
more, you can hit the join button below the video and become a monthly contributing member. I keep
00:22:26.120
the tears pretty low because I have seen other YouTubers. There's this other guy I know, Greg
00:22:31.860
Wycliffe, who I do not have a great opinion of from the Dominion Society. He has his own YouTube
00:22:37.580
channel where he barely uploads on it. And I think one of his membership tiers is that you
00:22:42.780
can have the privilege of giving him $150 a month to make like no videos. The guy put it out like
00:22:50.040
nothing. And I get, I see these YouTubers who have like membership tiers where it's like,
00:22:54.300
you can give me $55 and I might make a video this week. And it's like, what, what? That's pathetic.
00:23:00.980
But, but so that's why I've always kept tiers low. I'm not Netflix. I am not worth 30 bucks a
0.95
00:23:06.920
month or something like that and so my highest tier is like nine dollars or whatever I usually
00:23:11.040
keep it around like three or five or whatever it just makes the channel more sustainable because
00:23:15.260
sometimes YouTube is just messing with me and I am just not getting the reach that I feel like I
00:23:20.100
should be getting not that I'm like such an important individual I should be getting more
00:23:24.300
but in terms of like other people's channels they'll release a video and within the first
00:23:28.380
hour they've gotten like 15,000 views and it's literally on the same topic that I did I was out
00:23:34.400
a few hours first, I frankly, I'm not trying to be rude, but I frankly did the more detailed job
00:23:42.540
on the issue. I talked more about the actual reasons why it matters and not just the surface
00:23:48.000
level headlines. And their video is doing like 50 times better for no reason. And I think it's
00:23:53.060
because YouTube hates my guts these days. Not like actually, not that they're like actually
00:23:57.200
going in the algorithm back end to mess with me. Just the current algorithm has a weird favoritism
00:24:03.000
element where it will trust a channel for arbitrary reasons and give them a lot of reach
00:24:07.780
and then i've like struggled past 10 000 views when back like six months ago or whatever amount
00:24:15.200
of time it was like really easy sometimes i'll even have a great month where it just seems very
00:24:19.240
easy to get views and then the next it's like we'll just shove wyatt into like the infomercial
00:24:26.280
slot of youtube that nobody's watching but now i've complained enough and that is probably the
00:24:32.420
signal to sign off so thank you guys for watching see you guys later
